    It's brutal.

    And I certainly don't think it's all kick and chase either. When it flows it can be the most exciting game there is (after football).

    Which is for about 3 mins a game.
    I have never understood the love of the game at all?

    Each to their own and all that !

    I prefer it to the tap tap of RL. As you say, each to their own.

    Both forms of Egg make me want to fall asleep.

    As does car-pointing and golf.

    Never been able to get into either of the two rugby's. I'm losing love for sport rapidly as it is, football doesn't excite me no more, not like it use to anyway.

    The tap tap of consistent forward running, only kicking on the last tackle. League is abot scoring tries and attacking movement. Union is about game management and kicking penalties

    Whenever I watch league I get the impression it's about running into people and counting.

    Fantastic at international level.

    When England play.

    Far better than watching Barnsley

    Terrific win that. Not a great game but winning in Wales is a brilliant result. Well done George Ford great kicking
